Vegas

Those of you that follow me on twitter know that I’m currently in Vegas.  You might be wondering why I’m here.  Well, there’s a Star Trek convention in town and I’m hoping to becoming fluent in Klingon.  :)  Actually, I’m here meeting with a group of amazing pastors from all over the country.  We’ve decided to start meeting quarterly to talk shop and encourage one another.

You’re probably still wondering why we’re meeting in Vegas of all places.  Well, we’re going to be rotating where we meet each time and some of the guys are from the Vegas area so we just started here first.  Plus, we all like to gamble like mad.  :)  Actually, you can get some very cheap hotel rooms in Vegas during the winter so it worked out nicely.

I’ve got to tell you that I’m so excited about hanging out with these guys.  The truth is that pastors really need opportunities to experience genuine fellowship with each other and it doesn’t happen very often unless we’re intentional about it.  For me personally, the timing couldn’t be better.  We had some amazing discussions yesterday.  I’ve already learned so much and it was only our first day together.  It’s great to get to hang around such a sharp group of guys.  Confidentially. I’m still not sure how I get invited but I’m not going to bring it up.  :)

On a side note, I also brought my camera with me and I’m hoping to find some time to take some photos while I’m here.  If I get any good ones I’ll try to post them on picasa.

Later.
